Recently, this wave of the market has been a bit annoying—market makers are playing tricks, rising and then crashing, crashing and then rising again. A rise of 2000 points followed by a fall of 5000 points really makes it hard to understand the rhythm.



The new week has begun, and the daytime should still be dominated by fluctuations. Slowly rising before the US market opens, then quickly dropping once it starts; this pattern is likely to continue this week. With the global situation so turbulent, risk-averse sentiment remains, and it's essential to manage risk well, or sudden fluctuations could catch you off guard.

From a technical perspective: Bitcoin's daily chart shows a long candle with upper and lower shadows, indicating a struggle between bulls and bears. The hourly chart is stuck in a narrow range of 87500-89000, with the MACD histogram remaining negative. The DIF and DEA are still diverging downwards, indicating some weakness in the short term. The RSI is at 46.4, in the neutral zone but with a weak sentiment. The price is currently below the EMA7, and both the 7-day and 30-day moving averages are trending downwards, indicating a bearish outlook in the short term; however, it is still above the 120-day moving average, so the medium to long term has not completely turned bearish yet, which is crucial.

Recently, focus on high selling and low buying around the 85000-90600 range, don't stir too much.

Specific operations: Bitcoin can go long here at 86200-87000, with a stop loss set at 85500 and a target of 93100. Ethereum can be entered at 2900-2940, with a stop loss at 2900 and phased targets of 3180, 3250, 3300.

Coming back with the same move? The rise and fall are not proportional; the big players are playing this move skillfully. This week, it's again the pattern of the US market crashing, and risk control must be tight. The 120-day moving average is still holding up, so we can temporarily believe in a rebound. Just buy high and sell low, and don't overthink it.

The market maker's strategy is really amazing, a 2000-point rise and a 5000-point fall, are they playing with us? It has been stuck at 87500-89000 for so long, I think it's about to break, don't buy the dip everyone. Risk control really needs to be maximized, I've suffered losses from the U.S. market's strategy, so be careful this week. The 120-day chart is still holding, barely not completely collapsing, this point is indeed a lifesaver. Buying low and selling high sounds simple, but in practice, it's really easy to chase the price and sell with a bearish market. If I enter long positions at 86200, I have to wait a bit longer, I feel like the bottom hasn't been reached yet. This wave of the market, besides messing with the mindset, it's also frustrating that the MACD has been in negative territory for so long.

The market maker's trap is truly incredible; the rise and fall in amplitude is completely unequal, it's all about mindset.

ngl this market structure is giving classic liquidity trap vibes... the asymmetric risk/reward ratio you're describing is exactly how bridges get drained tbh. 87.5k holding support but that downside divergence on macd is sus af

Here we go again? As soon as the US market opens, it crashes. I'm already used to it, now I'm just waiting to buy the dip.

It's the same old trick again. I'm used to the dumping in the US market, just waiting to buy low.

The market maker's trap is really annoying, the rise and fall don't match, it's frustrating to watch.
